Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide

This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

I was wondering, this is there any place I (all slackware users) to make requests or toss out ideas for packages for future releases. I would really hate to email Patrick about something like this, before asking here. If there isn't, does anyone think it would be a good idea to have some place to request or submit packages for various things. I mean, it might help, it might hurt but it would be worth while in my opinion.
